MUSPOP 1005 - Contemporary Music in Practice A

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2020

Contemporary Music in Practice A enables students to develop skills in improvisation and performance, and introduces strategies for the preparation and performance of live original music. Comprising of two practical workshops, Workshop 1 provides conceptual frameworks and practical skills in improvisation in order to expand student's spontaneity and creativity; particularly in a band / ensemble setting. Workshop 2 sees students work in small groups to prepare their own original work for live performance. A key focus of this workshop is promoting student autonomy through rehearsals, and encouraging students to engage with the local music industry through off-campus performances.
